I'm going to assume that the question should say “at a profit of 5%”.

Restate question in the form of a equation.

Let C = the cost price of the item.

C + 0.705 C = C - 0.05 C + Rs 50

0.05 C = - 0.05 C + Rs 50

0.10 C = Rs 50

C = Rs 500

The cost price of the item is Rs 500

I hope this help you

Answer:

The percentage increase in bird population in the second years is 4%  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

During two years, the population of birds of an island became 7 times more than before.

The the percentage increase in first year = = r_1 =40%

Let The percentage increase in second year =  r_2 = r%

So, According to question

The initial population of bird = x

The increase population of bird =7 times before = 7 x

Now,

The increase population of bird = initial population of bird × (1+ \dfrac{r_1}{100}) ×  (1+ \dfrac{r_2}{100})

Or, 7 x = x × (1+ \dfrac{40}{100}) ×  (1+ \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, \dfrac{7 x}{x} = 1.4 ×  (1+ \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, 7 = 1.4 ×  (1+ \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, \dfrac{7 }{1.4} = (1+ \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, 5 = (1+ \dfrac{r}{100})

Or, (1+ \dfrac{r}{100}) = 5

Or, \dfrac{r}{100} = 5 - 1

Or,  \dfrac{r}{100} = 4

∴ r = 4 × 100

I.e r = 400

so, The percentage increase = r% = 4

Hence The percentage increase in bird population in the second years is 4%  . Answer

We know that
<span>Figures can be proven similar if one, or more, similarity transformations (reflections, translations, rotations, dilations) can be found that map one figure onto another.
In this problem to prove circle 1 and circle 2 are similar, a translation and a scale factor (from a dilation) will be found to map one circle onto another.

</span>we have that
 <span>Circle 1 is centered at (4,3) and has a radius of 5 centimeters
</span><span> Circle 2 is centered at (6,-2) and has a radius of 15 centimeters
</span>
step 1
<span>Move the center of the circle 1 onto the center of the circle 2
</span>the transformation has the following rule
(x,y)--------> (x+2,y-5)
so
(4,3)------> (4+2,3-5)-----> (6,-2)
so
center circle 1 is now equal to center circle 2 
<span>The circles are now concentric (they have the same center)
</span>
step 2
A dilation is needed to increase the size of circle 1<span> to coincide with circle 2
</span>
scale factor=radius circle 2/radius circle 1-----> 15/5----> 3

radius circle 1 will be=5*scale factor-----> 5*3-----> 15 cm
radius circle 1 is now equal to radius circle 2 

A translation, followed by a dilation<span> will map one circle onto the other, thus proving that the circles are similar</span>
